The units that are typically used to express discharge in streams or rivers include m 3 /s (cubic meters per second), ft 3 /s (cubic feet per second or cfs) and/or acre-feet per day. [2] A commonly applied methodology for measuring, and estimating, the discharge of a river is based on a simplified form of the continuity equation.
As the name suggests, an acre-foot is defined as the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot. Since an acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (i.e. 66 ft × 660 ft or 20.12 m × 201.17 m), an acre-foot is 43,560 cubic feet (1,233.5 m 3). There has been two definitions of the acre-foot (differing by about 0.0006%), using ...

As of Feb. 5, the lake was being held at about 86% capacity with 324,000 acre-feet of water within its banks and 350 cubic feet of water being released per second into the Salinas River, according ...
Under the Trump administration in 2019, 2,000 cubic feet per second was pumped, there was at least five days of reduced flow and there was a loss of 13,200 acre-feet of water, the governor's ...
For liquids, various units are used depending upon the application and industry, but might include gallons (U.S. or imperial) per minute, liters per second, liters per m 2 per hour, bushels per minute or, when describing river flows, cumecs (cubic meters per second) or acre-feet per day.
